generator squeal

rognelson777 · 10-02-2012, 10:41 AM

I have a onan emerald plus 4.0 model BGE-FA/26100P

When I start it up cold today temp is 65 it runs for about 1 minute and then a loud squeal starts. if I shut it off for a couple of minutes and restart it it runs with no problem, running 30 minutes right now. this happened at indy last september 2011, shut it down and restarted 5 minutes later ran for 3 more days with no problem. Has never done it again until today. do not use generator alot, but had no problems with this for last 4 trips.

Going to natioanls at maple grove this weekend and wondering if we should use generator.

anybody else have this problem?
